Suillus pseudobrevipes, commonly known as the veiled short-stemmed slippery jack,[3] is a species of fungus in the genus Suillus. It was first described scientifically by American mycologists Harry D. Thiers and Alexander H. Smith in 1964.[2]
The cap is 5–15 centimetres (2–6 in) wide and tannish, darkening with age; the margin may have whitish veil remnants.[3] The pores are yellow and the spore print is brown.[3] The stalk is up to 8 cm long and 3 cm thick. A fibrillous annulus is usually present.[3]
It is distributed in North America under pine trees. The fruit body is edible.[3]
